UNITY Stipends

We’re offering three $200 stipends this year to assist with the costs of going to UNITY 2012 in Las Vegas. Conventions are also a great investment in your career, so we encourage members to check it out.

Recipients should have a history of involvement with the chapter, as well as commit to helping lead one fundraiser in the coming year.

If you’d like to apply, please fill out the application form below and respond by March 15. The board will consider applications and notify recipients by Friday, March 16, so members can catch the early bird rate. Email applications toportland.aaja@gmail.com.

4. Have you been a previous beneficiary of chapter/national financial assistance? How would a stipend fit into your budget for the convention?
